Hi,
I'm 16, and I'm considering writing a story about The Recording Kid, and his adventures trying to create professional-sounding music with a consumer computer, a garage with no acoustics and horrible equipment all while battling his arch-enemies, The Unsupporting Father and High-Priced Electronics with his sidekick Mr. Weekly Allowance and Mini-mum Wage Job. Definately a losing battle.

All jokes aside, I'm looking to intern with, or at least sit beside and gaze at, a studio engineer or recordist that works a professional recording studio. I live in maryland--I've been searching all over, but I was wondering if there was some sort of recording studio directory. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Ben

I can't recommend that highly enough..
I learned everything I know (which admittedly is never enough) from interning at a studio while in college.

I went around to all the local studios and basically begged.
It also helped that I knew how to fix computers (which was a rare talent back when I was in college) which got me in the door.

thanks! i didn't realize the yellow pages were that specific with a section labeled "recording studios", but alas...
Here's what i found to be the most prominent...
A Morphius MFG Morphius Records Inc
Cloud 9 Recording Studios
Invisible Sound Studios Inc
Pure Sound Recording Studios

Any of those sound familiar? Believe it or not the last one offers a class that seems right up my alley.
